Same reason why the sandalbearer of the shogun was a high position in japan, you had access to the monarch while they are vulnerable, naturally you'd want someone trustworthy for that role. Speaking of toilets iirc there's a ninja somewhere that spent a few days inside the toilet waiting for his target, when the poor guy arrived he stabbed him up the bum and ran off. Talk about dedication.
If you want rank next to your name (that goes up in level) and are wondering how people are seeing / commenting 21 hrs ago this is because they are sponsors of Simple History (Sponsor Button is under the video)
Ian Macfarlane I almost fell off the friggin toilet... Omfg........ I was literally in mid-S--T when I read your comment... I almost hate you! Almost.. that was FAF!!
Thinking about this. If I could choose between working at the factory with zero experience or being a Groom of the Stool, I'd mostly stick with factory work.
Geophph Thats a "Reichsapfel" (it literally means apple of the empire) it was a rule sign given to each emperor of the holy roman empire (of german nations) next to the scepter. So many other countries (including GB) copied it. ... Oh, and it was also filled with deadly explosives in order to kill any approaching furred creature.
I can't even go to the bathroom knowing there's someone closeby, like if I'm in my closed bathroom and one of my friends is in my bedroom right outside of it. I can't imagine someone standing RIGHT NEXT TO ME waiting for me to finish taking a crap, lol.
kid that enters the tudor times somehow in some kids history cartoon: omg courtiers!!!! whatd you guys do??? musician: i play music artist: i do art groom of the stool: ….
King: Hey Stanley? Groom: What? King: I just had beans. Groom: Oh no. King: Also, those pieces of corn from yesterday are ready to come out. Groom: That's just great. King: You know what's even better? Asparagus. Groom: Sometimes I think you hate me.
I love your videos SO MUCH!!! thank you for keeping me entertained for hours. If you could I would love a video on Winston Churchill (sorry for spelling). Again thank you
You guys should cover the 104th infantry division. The reason I ask is because my great grandfather was in the timber wolfs and my grandfather and I would like to learn more about them
do stories about the first and last soldiers to die in famous wars wars from each army, its kinda chilling to hear about the men who were unfortunate enough to be the first to die in the first minutes after spending months or years in training .... or to hear about those men who thought that they would return home alive for sure because they survived many battles for years only to die few days or even few hours before the war officially ended
A mod in Fallout 4 created a high-class British manor available to the player. One of the NPCs was titled "Lord of Stool". If engaged, the screen goes black and a message appears "you have relieved yourself and feel refreshed. AP and health have been fully restored". I hysterically laughed for a good 5 minutes.
Being a Nurse....ain't nothing we don't see on a daily basis... somebody, during the course of the day, and gonna "let go"...I have had Doctors haul off and run sometimes, after they have ordered "Enema til Clear".
I can only imagine the awkwardness for the groom of the stool if they ever stormed off in frustration. What would they say? Like, “You know what, Henry? I’ve had enough of your sh**!” XD
Please do a video about the T28-super-heavy-tank, the heaviest tank that the US has ever built and was mainly planned to deal with german and japanese fortifications.
Actually, this is probably a very high class position. Think about how much time you spend in the bathroom every day. Now take that amount of time in minutes, and realize that the Groom of the Stool had a private, one-on-one conversation with the Head of State of his country every single day for that amount of time. That is a lot of time to convince the most powerful politician in your country to see things your way and act in your interests.
Alexander Villaplane - 1930 France World Cup captain and later on a collaborator with the Nazi's and Henry La'fonte. There isn't many video's about Football players and WWII please could SimpleHistory do a video about Alexander Villaplane.
For your next “Worst Jobs” video, can you do “Cadaver Collector” in New York City? There were times when the NYC coroner’s office didn’t have enough people to collect the bodies, so they would pay people who found them. Sometimes the people would fight each other over a body so they could collect the bounty the coroner paid them.
This is the highest rank of the Tosher

Simple History Question...does the rank only show on your videos when commenting, or other places as well?

Wow, you should start poetry. Such delicacy in the title.

Software Man That was the actual job (jobby?) title.

Ian Macfarlane
I almost fell off the friggin toilet... Omfg........ I was literally in mid-S--T when I read your comment... I almost hate you! Almost.. that was FAF!!
bu dum tsss.
ComfyTush Puns can be funny. It's just that most of them are not.
Never seen anyone look this absolutely traumatized in a Simple History video.
with very understandable reasons to be so
King: Hey, kid, you want a special job.
Me: No thanks, I'll stick with being poor.
Thinking about this. If I could choose between working at the factory with zero experience or being a Groom of the Stool, I'd mostly stick with factory work.
that 1 dislike is Henry Noris
He was Henry's, well, Groom of the stool and got executed.
2:24 why the heck he got a Holy hand grenade?
I know it's odd
because its part of the Crown Jewels
Geophph Thats a "Reichsapfel" (it literally means apple of the empire) it was a rule sign given to each emperor of the holy roman empire (of german nations) next to the scepter.
So many other countries (including GB) copied it.
...
Oh, and it was also filled with deadly explosives in order to kill any approaching furred creature.
The holy hand grenade of saint Antioch.
Because he was a legend at Worms before the game was even realeased.
This is like when your friends ask "would you do such and such a thing for 1 million dollars" in this case I'm not sure I would~
.......That is absolutely disgusting...I would puke. Thank God for modern toilets.
Just A Random Fish Sewage system. They just put a pipe on the toilet to the sewers
I can't even go to the bathroom knowing there's someone closeby, like if I'm in my closed bathroom and one of my friends is in my bedroom right outside of it. I can't imagine someone standing RIGHT NEXT TO ME waiting for me to finish taking a crap, lol.
Now that's a crappy job.
Literally
But money
Joseph B it’s a royal crappy job
Even the mightiest of men must eventually sit on the porcelain throne...
Billy Conolly once asked his viewers during a TV series he wondered whether Abraham Lincoln wore his tall hat on the toilet.
Mark Ant
Did he? I mean, you never know what people like doing in their alone time.
Now it makes me wonder, is this where the term "Brown nosing" came from? Good video!
Back then it was a prestigious position, you basically have the ear of the king, and ask favours.
I wonder if that is where the term privy council comes from?
Aaron Wicklam how do you have that next to ur name
Phantom Wolf I am a sponsor of the channel.
Aaron Wicklam ow that's new
kid that enters the tudor times somehow in some kids history cartoon: omg courtiers!!!! whatd you guys do???

King: Hey Stanley?
Groom: What?
King: I just had beans.
Groom: Oh no.
King: Also, those pieces of corn from yesterday are ready to come out.
Groom: That's just great.
King: You know what's even better? Asparagus.
Groom: Sometimes I think you hate me.
Yeah I've seen this guy in the restrooms at nightclubs. He also puts soap on ur hands and cleverly throw u a towel in hopes of a tip.
I love a good medieval toilet humour.
Good job simple history keep up the great work !!!
I love your videos SO MUCH!!! thank you for keeping me entertained for hours. If you could I would love a video on Winston Churchill (sorry for spelling). Again thank you
"Will Groom Stools For Food"

You guys should cover the 104th infantry division. The reason I ask is because my great grandfather was in the timber wolfs and my grandfather and I would like to learn more about them
*I CAN'T POSSIBLY BE THE ONLY PERSON THAT LOVES THE TUNE OF THE FLUTE IN THE BACKGROUND*
It covers the sound of Henry
Great video!
Lots of strange but interesting facts!
Hi SimpleHistory may I ask you to do the Canadian RCMP next? Thanks =D
I was about to sleep then
*Simple history notification*
One more video
If the groom of the stool was a modern job:
Groom of the stool: * uses drone to record mr presidents diet *
This is still going on this hasn't stopped
0:34 origin of the phrase "Stool sample"?
It basically means that they cleans Henry VIIIs, you get what I mean
I like how the kings liked being wiped by dudes and the queen liked being wiped by a women
Did you see the movie Conctipated
It never came out
I heard the plot was full of crap.
Unoriginal
*Constipated.
The Grooms facial expression looks like he's questioning his life choices.
Well, I guess they wished they had gas mask back then. Not to even mention the miasma theory.
That must of been awkward when he was looking at the king while also cleaning his backside at the same time...
Please more Worst jobs in history!! I love these
0:04-0:11 can this be made into a 10 minute loop?
Love your vids by the way and thanks for teaching me history

And this is why the roman's where way more advanced then other civilizations because they had a form of plumbing.

Most videos about war Watch mention the Balkan wars, but I haven’t seen any specifically about them. Can you make a video about it?
Hi I was wondering you guys should do a video on The Siege of Jadotville.
I can only imagine the awkwardness for the groom of the stool if they ever stormed off in frustration. What would they say? Like, “You know what, Henry? I’ve had enough of your sh**!” XD
Imagine trying to be a suck-up for the sake of job security... "My Lord, might I say ye havest takeneth the fairest of dumps, on this day."
